Find LCM of 642,829,856,438,953 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 642, 829, 856, 438, 953 |
| 3 | 321, 829, 428, 219, 953 |
| 107 | 107, 829, 428, 73, 953 |
| 1, 829, 4, 73, 953 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 107 x 1 x 829 x 4 x 73 x 953 = 148103496168
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 642,829,856,438,953 is 148103496168.
LCM formula is LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}
Firstly, we have to find the product of all the numbers.
642 x 829 x 856 x 438 x 953 = 190164889079712
Then, let us find the GCF of these five numbers. To do so, we have to list down the factors for each number and choose the highest factor that is in all of the lists.
642 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 107, 214, 321, 642
829 : 1, 829
856 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 107, 214, 428, 856
438 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 73, 146, 219, 438
953 : 1, 953
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 642,829,856,438,953, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
642:2x 3x 107
829:829
856:2x 2x 2x 107
438:2x 3x 73
953:953
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 2x 3x 107 = 1284
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1284.
Now that we have all the elements of the formula, we can plug them in to calculate the LCM.
LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}
LCM = 190164889079712/(1x1284)
LCM = 190164889079712/1284
LCM = 148103496168
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 642,829,856,438,953 is 148103496168.
